ADF/Cofilin family

ADF/cofilin is a family of actin-binding proteins associated with the rapid depolymerization of actin microfilaments that give actin its characteristic dynamic instability. This dynamic instability is central to actin's role in muscle contraction, cell motility and transcription regulation. Three highly conserved and highly (70%-82%) identical genes belonging to this family have been described in humans and mice:
